Neap tide
There's very little range in sea levels today - could be a good opportunity to watch the tide go out and be disappointed not to see the usual rocks appearing. And it would be exciting to not see the pool filling up.
NEAP: Origin unknown. (Low German: East Friesland) Nippflood, Nipptide, German Nippflut (1827 or earlier), Nipptide, Swedish nipflod (1881), niptid (1887), Danish nipflod (1880 or earlier), niptid (1756 or earlier; also in form neptid), all late borrowings, prob. ult. from English.
